    Star trek 8, Deana is shaving Riker with a straight.

    Also Archie Bunker in one episode is using a straight, makes a joke about cutting the "meat-head".

    In a recent episode of Eastbound and Down (not film, although not quite tv either... "it's HBO"), a depressed Stevie picks up a straight razor in the bathroom (I believe it was a Dubl Duck) and a few scenes later is shown with a shaved head.

    Sunrise (1927) - silent film showing on TCM right now. A customer is getting a barber shave while someone is flirting with his wife. After the shave he cuts the grooming short to confront this guy.

    Straight razor shaver and loving it!

    Saw one in a two second bit in a MasterCard "Tango" theme on a 30 second commercial.

    He was right, it was a Dali/Buñuel co-production: "Un Chien Andalou"

    Saw a trailer for the next Bond film not too long ago and there's a straight involved there. That plus Javier Bardem as the baddie and you know I'm looking forward to it!

    BTW any Pixies fans out there? "Un Chien Andalou" was the inspiration for "Debaser".

    It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
    This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

    Judge Stone (Andy's father) in the Andy Hardy's episodes.I recall at least two where the judge was either shaving or packing his razor for a trip.
    The original Titanic movie with Clifton Webb and Barbara Stanwyck. He had to borrow a straight razor from a friend/fellow passenger.
